There are upon the skin of every
human being, child and adult alike,
100000 pores. Through these
pores in the form of insensible per.
spiration, is expelled more than one
quarter of the nourishment taken into
the system. The importance Of keep
ing open these perspiraton valves
upon child's body is second only to
that of promptly digesting the food
eaten. 1t was to open the pores of
the skin and to assimiate the food
that DIR. Pitcher formulated Castoria.
Loose bowels, constipation, fevers
and eruptions which are so constant
among infants and children, and
which kill one-third of all children
before they are five years old, arise
principally from these two causes. 1t
is from the wonderful results attend
ant upon the use of Castoria in regu-
lating the stomachs and bowels and
keeping open the pores of the skin,
that Castoria acquired its worldwide
reputation. With plenty of water
for the body, pure air for the lungs
and Castoria to assimilate the food
there need be no unaccounted for
sickness among children Castoria
is a vegetable prescription without
morphine or other narcotic property.
Thirty years extensive use has given
it a history never attained by an.
other medicine.

"A Very Friendly Meeting Between rrincs
bismarck and the Gear.


BERLIN, Nov. 23 The North German Ga
zette, the official organ of Prince Bismarck,
in its issue of Tuesday states that the inter
view recently had by Prince Bismarck with
the car was of most friendly and compre.
hensive character. The car complained shat
the policy of Germany, especially that pur-
sued with regard to Bulgaria, was directed
against Russia's interests, which letters re-
ceived at the Russian foreign office 'conclu-
sively showed. Prince Bismarck, inreply to
this declaration Of the czar, indicated that
Germany always regarded Bulgaria as lying
within the sphere Of Russian interests, and
acted in this spirit whenever no strictly Ger
man interests were involved. Prince Bis
marck also expressed desire to sec the let
tiers mentioned, and formulated at lopgth
Germany's complaints against Russia. The
car was very attentive during Prince Bis
marck recital, and promised on his return to
St Petersburg to better inform himself on
the matters discussed and arrive at decisions
accordingly.
